The Wrong Woman

Chapter 425

Nathan and Mila hadn’t planned on using the car. They preferred to keep holding hands and walk instead. Mila hummed in response.

“When?” Nathan asked.

Mila felt a sharp pain in her heart. Still, she answered casually, “Sunterland has arranged for someone to retrieve me. The day that person arrives is the day I depart.”

Nathan gazed at the darkening sky as he felt a weight settle in his chest. He was so distraught that breathing became difficult.

“My parents are still alive. So, I hope you can continue helping me search for them,” Mila added.

“I will,” Nathan promised.

“I’ll also get the authorities in Sunterland to help locate my parents.”

Nathan’s steps slowed.

“Nate, could you keep an eye on my grandparents once in a while after I go? They’re getting older, and they live by themselves…”

Mila’s voice trembled as she added, “I’m really busy. Plus, they don’t know about my job, so they would find it hard to understand why I can’t be in touch with them. I won’t be able to visit them in Norvania, and I–I feel guilty about it.”

Nathan came to a sudden halt. He couldn’t bring himself to meet her gaze, fearing he might break down before her. He forced a façade of composure and said, “When you left Norvania ten years ago,

you had already made the decision never to return.

“That’s why you cut ties with everyone here. It was only because of Oliver that you came back.” Nathan glanced at the distant lights, his eyes glistening with tears as he asked bitterly, “How long will you be gone again? Five years, ten years, or fifty?”

Mila’s heart broke as she realized that even though they had no future together, Nathan might still wait for her. An overwhelming sadness washed over her.

She took a deep breath, her voice catching as she said, “Nite, please don’t wait for me. If you meet a wonderful woman, go for it. Enjoy a beautiful romanice, tie the knot, and build a family with her.”

Nathan gazed at the sky as he sensed his tears threatened to fall. His throat tightened as if it was burning. He was overwhelmed by sadness, and he struggled to contain them.

With a husky voice, he asked, “And you? Will you find someone similar and start a family? Will you have children with him?”

“I’m not sure,” Mila said as she wiped her tears. She didn’t know what the future held couldn’t give him a definite answer.

Nathan couldn’t find words. He simply hugged Mila tightly. She held onto him just as firmly. Her tears flowed down her cheeks onto his chest.

Nathan couldn’t fathom the depth of Mila’s sorrow. Was it because she couldn’t bear to part with Zach and Loretta? Or maybe it was her inability to serve Norvania or the anguish of being unable to rescue

her parents. These reasons alone were sufficient to evoke such profound tears.

She was frequently brought to tears, yet she remained his beloved. However, she was destined to only be a brief part of his life.

Nathan gently caressed her head and whispered, “Mila, when the time comes for you to leave, please don’t tell me and just leave quietly, alright?”

Mila continued to shed tears with her eyes shut tight. She asked tearfully, “But why?” Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

“I can’t go through that pain again–breaking down at the airport like I did a decade ago. I’m scared I might lose my mind and want to hide you away so no one could find you.” Nathan’s voice trembled.

Mila nestled deeper into Nathan’s embrace and clung tightly to him. She wept and wept, silently yearning to stay in his arms indefinitely.
